>>104395975Every time I started to get an oshi I eventually developed a crush on her, which is the only natural response for a girl you spend more and more time with and like more and more with that time.
Just being platonic friends is the same old tired spew coming from same old coping&gaslighting tired modern western society. It only "works" if you have minimal interaction (which would fall below the threshold of vtuber fan) or if you're not each others' type (precluded by your interest in her here).
The word "parasocial" means nothing, and is just foids shrouding "ick" with a scientific veneer for validity. You can never let go of those "pretensions"; rather they come out on their own naturally.
As a streamer, the only thing women have to offer is being/looking/sounding cute/soft/sexual. Games? I'll watch a man play. Talking? Why would I want to listen to a mental runt constantly bombarded with the reality of her leaking blood and yeast from her broken pelvis? Why waste my time?
The only exclusive talent I'll ascribe to a women is singing. Men can't produce their kind of singing so that's their only niche. That's the only time I can personally care about a woman who isn't part of my family. But that's not something that's really stream-oriented.
